Race Tip

POPEYE THE SAILOR (6) finished 5 lengths away in fourth last time out over 6½f at Alexandra two weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Raymond Douglas has registered four minor placings when on board. Will strip fitter and is one of the big chances. PRELIMINAIRES (5) finished 11 lengths adrift in tenth last time at Traralgon in a disappointing performance. Has the class to take care of this field. ACHAEUS (4) finds it hard to win but was in the finish last time when beaten half a length into second over 1m1/4f at Healesville. Ms Angela Bence who has two wins when partnering stays on. Capable of running a bold race. LITTLE BROTHER (7) finished seventh over 1m2 1/2f at Moe at his most recent appearance on April 25. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.
